The red paper wasp is a social wasp that builds papery nests from chewed plant fibres and saliva. It lives across much of the Neotropical region, from southern Arizona down to Argentina. Its colonies share work between many females, which makes it a useful example for scientists studying how social animals organise themselves.1

Nests are often found on human buildings, in open places on tree trunks and large limbs, and in sheltered spots such as caves, sheds and under peeling bark.1

1

A single queen dominates the other females, sometimes using physical attacks that can turn into fatal battles.1

2

Colonies build many combs, often around 38 in total, and move brood into new combs as old ones are abandoned. This is thought to protect the colony from moth infestations.1

3

Male wasps follow two mating tactics: some defend territories, while smaller males patrol from tree to tree and sneak matings when they can.1

4

Around 56% of females drift to nearby nests, which helps protect the colony against predators. An egg has a 40% chance of being eaten by a predator before it reaches adulthood.1

5

Colonies are founded or abandoned at any time of year, so their development is not tied to the seasons.1

Feññinoowo fenaande

Fenaande: The species name canadensis shows that this wasp lives in Canada.

Goonga: Linnaeus was misinformed about where his specimen came from. In North America, this wasp only reaches as far north as southern Arizona.1
